Abstract

A machining tool includes a table, an adjustable fence disposed on the table, a fixing device coupled to the fence and a lever operable by an operator. The fixing device can be operated to fix the fence in position or to permit the movement of the fence relative to the table by the operation of the lever. As a result, a tool is not needed to change the position of the fence relative to the table.
